    Predicting CTCF-mediated chromatin interactions by integrating genomic and epigenomic features

    The CCCTC-binding zinc-finger protein (CTCF)-mediated network of long-range chromatin interactions is important for genome organization and function. Although this network has been considered largely invariant...

    Ezh2 programs TFH differentiation by integrating phosphorylation-dependent activation of Bcl6 and polycomb-dependent repression of p19Arf

    Ezh2 is an histone methyltransferase (HMT) that catalyzes H3K27me3 and functions in TH1, TH2, and Treg cells primarily via HMT activity. Here we show that Ezh2 ablation impairs T follicular helper (TFH) cell diff...

    Tcf1 and Lef1 provide constant supervision to mature CD8+ T cell identity and function by organizing genomic architecture

    T cell identity is established during thymic development, but how it is maintained in the periphery remains unknown. Here we show that ablating Tcf1 and Lef1 transcription factors in mature CD8+ T cells aberrantl...

    Abnormalities in intron retention characterize patients with systemic lupus erythematosus

    Regulation of intron retention (IR), a form of alternative splicing, is a newly recognized checkpoint in gene expression. Since there are numerous abnormalities in gene expression in the prototypic autoimmune ...
